Title: Method for deriving a temporal predictive motion vector, and apparatus using the method
Inventor: BAE KEUN LEE
IPC: H04N19/61
Filed: 2012-09-06
Abstract: A method of decoding comprising obtaining a spatial prediction motion vector, obtaining a temporal motion prediction vector, generating a motion vector candidate list, and performing inter prediction based on the candidate list. The spatial prediction motion vector is obtained using a motion vector of a neighbouring spatial block adjacent the current block. The temporal motion prediction vector is obtained using a motion vector of a collocated block. The collocated block is determined based on whether a boundary of the current block adjoins a boundary of a largest coding unit (LCU). A candidate list is then generated including the spatial prediction motion vector and the temporal prediction motion vector, and inter prediction is performed. The block is then reconstructed from the predicted sample and a residual sample, and a deblocking filter is applied. One of a first and second block may be determined as the collocated block based on the boundary adjoins the boundary of the LCU and the first block is adjacent a bottom right position of the current block.
